Hi,

I've installed the RX580 for the system update to Catalina. So when I try to render videos trough after effects and media encoder it takes hours for it to compleet especially motion blur takes a lot of time (almost 100% on CPU). Seems like my Hackintosh is not using hardware encoding.

Is there a workaround for my AMD RX580 to enable h264 encoding acceleration? I didn't have this issue on high sierra but occurs on catalina. I think I did configure everything on the clover configurator for the hackintosh to recognise the rx580 and use hardware acceleration.

I did research on the forum but cant find the solution that worked for me.

I have same GPU (Rx580 Sapphire8GB) with Asus z390-E mainboard. But I can't getting to work hardware acceleration. Is there any trick?

I managed to get the videocard running by replacing the IG-Platform ID in the config file. My hackintosh will work with SMBios IMacPro1.1 then decoding will work, but this SMBIOS is unstable. I guess we have to wait for an update of Mac OSX were RX 580 hardware acceleration will work natively.
